Marie Antoinette

Visible crew/equipment: Marie tells Louis that she would be devastated if her sister in law becomes pregnant before her, right before he leaves for a hunt. She walls down the corridor and stands for about 10 seconds, then walks away, if you look at the floor you can see her mark taped to the ground.

Deliberate mistake: In the scene where Marie is trying on shoes, a pair of powder blue high top Converse sneakers can be seen next to her feet. It must have been done intentionally, but since there is no trace of modern apparel anywhere else in the film (the closest would be the mere mention of hot pink dress fabric but, as it's not shown, we don't know what exactly Marie calls "hot pink") these shoes (and the fabric) can't be considered part of a thematic element or artistic license.

Question: Why did Marie take baths with a nightgown on?

Answer: That was just the custom then. Total nudity was considered inappropriate, if not immoral, even when bathing, which people did infrequently or not at all because it was thought to be unhealthy.
